Bespoke CPD Events & Trainings

The Sunflower Network can organise and facilitate bespoke CPD events and trainings for schools, charities, organisations, companies and groups, ranging from small in depth workshop groups to larger training sessions for hundreds of delegates.

Trainers & Training Days

We can facilitate both on-line trainings and (where possible) in-person trainings. For larger groups and in person trainings, we ask for as much notice as possible with ideally at least a three – six month lead time. Events at shorter notice may be possible but it will depend on the availability of our trainers, many of whom are in high demand.

Please note: this is a holding page whilst our new Events Area is being developed – new trainers and trainings will be added very soon.

If you can’t find what you’re looking for on the list below, please get in touch on [email protected] to discuss your training needs.

Please make sure to include as many details about your needs as possible eg numbers, proposed date(s), online or in person etc. We will then get back in touch with any further questions and with a quote for costs. 

Thank you.
